Heat Trace Cable

 Chromalox announces a new heat trace cable product -- Series Long Line Heat Trace Cable (SLL). Series Long Line heat trace is similar in construction to Chromalox’s current self-regulating heat trace, making it compatible with their current accessory offering. Series Long Line heat trace is suited for use on extremely long pipelines where high temperature maintenance is critical for freeze protection and viscosity maintenance.  This type of heat trace cable is ideal for use in the alternative fuels, power generation, oil and gas, chemical, food, and pulp and paper industries. 

Long pipelines are typically used in these operations to transfer liquids from the processing plants to the storage facilities, tank farms and transportation vessels. Series long line heat trace cable is specifically designed with longer circuit lengths for these applications.  Chromalox model SLL heat trace can be used for continuous circuit lengths up to 7,000 feet (2286 m), powered from a single source with output ranges up to 12 w/ft and voltages from 120 V to 600 V. By reducing the number of circuits, or power connections, on a long pipeline, significant cost savings can be realized by the end user. The series resistance type heat trace cables can also withstand continuous exposure to temperatures up to 450°F (232°C).
